I was about halfway through my mission when the rule on teaching Muslims was announced. I was in Holland and Belgium where there are some pretty significant Muslim populations. I can honestly say though that prior to the rule I never came across a single Muslim who had one bit of interest in hearing more about Mormonism. Anyway, when the rule was announced it was by a member of the area presidency. It applied, in our mission, only to the immigrant population and not all muslims. The reasoning was that 1) it put the investigators life in danger and 2) it may put the missionaries lives in danger.

I didn't get too worked up about it because as I said, it wasn't happening anyway.
